An insulated rigid tank is initially evacuated. A valve is opened, and atmospheric air at 95 kPa and 17 ºC enters the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches 95 kPa, at which point the valve is closed. Determine the final temperature of the air in the tank. Assume constant specific heats.

Answer:

[tex]T2= 406k[/tex]

Explanation:

The temperature can be defined as the measurement of the intensity of the heat present in the object. Fahrenheit, kelvin and centigrade are the common scale used for measuring Temperature.

Given:

T1=170C

To convert to Kelvin

= 17+273 =290K

T1 = 290K

Pressure (P)= 95KPa

Specific heat ratio = CP/CV= K

WhereK=1.005/0.718

K = 1.4

The final temperature can be calculated using the formula below.

T2 = CP/CV × T1

=. K × T1

T2 = 1.4 × 290
